How do you measure nutritional value and potential die off in these bottles?

How do I keep all the life alive in the bottle?

live foods
 
refrigerate them-it slows down their cycle.rotifers can be refrigerated for more than a week.to bring them back to full metabolism,undo the cap and let them sit for four hours.phytoplankton can be stored for a month in the fridge.for both they should be shaken twice a day so the cells don't smother,and the rotifers,don't settle too much.not sure about copepods as i just started them ,but refrigerating them should slow them down as well.you can also freeze phytoplankton for up to three months
